Dairy cattle showmanship : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dairy cattle showmanship
Showing dairy cattle provides the dairy farmer a means of buying and selling his cows or heifers and selecting foundational cows for his dairy herd. Shows can be social events in addition to serving as important business opportunities, and ages of those who show and attend cover a broad range. Dairy shows are also an important tool in sparking the interest of young people to become involved in the dairy industry. The six breeds of dairy cows that are shown are Ayrshire cattle, Brown Swiss cattle, Milking Shorthorn, Guernsey cattle, Holstein cattle and Jersey cattle. In order to register for a show, payment and the registration for the cow or heifer must be submitted. The registration would include the breed, birthdate, dam and sire of the animal. ==Selecting a heifer for show== Functional dairy traits or dairy strength is the most important area to consider when selecting a calf, heifer or cow for show. Calves are the hardest to select due to the fact that their dairy traits are not developed and therefore harder to evaluate. Heifers should be strong chested, with a visible frame and should have evenly distributed teat placement. Milking cows should have a securely attached udder and a visible but strong frame and good teat placement. Cows should have a strong rear udder suspensory ligament that blends and smoothly attaches high and tight to the rear end. Rumps are also examined closely since they are the main support for the udder and serve as a roof.
